Pre-Whitworth easements are defined as all those interests in prperty acquired by the State Highway Commission of Mississippi through Warranty Deed, Special Warranty Deed, Quitclaim Deed or other monument of title prior to September 14, 1949. The interest of the Mississippi Transportation Commission in any pre-Whitworth property is valued as an easement; therefore, title to the underlying fee interest of the subject property must be confirmed. The requestor must file suit to quiet and confirm title of the underlying fee interest.
